"A serious new wheat dis ease for this area has hit the higher elevation areas of Morrow and Gilliam County," the county extension office reports. At least four fields in Morrow and four fields in Gilliam counties were identif ied as having a disease known as fungus leaf stripe, or ceph alosporins stripe, o "It is a fungus that attacks the water conducting tissue of the plants, "says agent Harold Kerr. "The fungus over-winters in the soil on diseased wheat straw. The disease is identified by white stripes on the leaves during jointing and heading. The plants, at first glance, appear to be ripening, but on closer examination, will appear necrotic. At harvest time a large percent of the plants will be short and have blank heads up to 80 percent or more. The few good heads will be 68 inches taller and be normal. After harvest, the stubble will appear black or darkened as if it had bwn through a winter. "In the higher elevation areas where fungus leaf stripe Court takes Extension programs to help conserve resources first at two parades The Morrow County Fair and Rodo court took 1st place on Aug. 30 at the Boardman Harvest Festival Parade. The court also took first place Saturday night, Sept. 6, at the Dress Up Parade in Pendleton. Those attending from Mor row County were: Queen Lorl Edwards and her parents. Mr. and Mrs. John Edwards; Princess Nancy Miller and her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Tad Miller, and brother.

"Clowning around" may soon have a new meaning for Morrow County 4-H members and leaders, reports John P. Nordheim . Morrow County Extension Agent. Because so many 4-H mem bers and leaders have ex pressed interest in clowning, a special workshop is planned for September 26-28 at the Oregon 4-H Center near Salem to train a team of two or three volunteers from each county, says Nordheim . The program, under the direction of Al Snider. Oregon State 1'niversity Extension 4-H youth specialist, and Nola Campbell, workshop coordin ator, say the workshop will be limited to 40 people. Persons from Morrow County interest ed in a (tending should register with the county Extension office by Sept. 15. Cktwning was introduced to Extension Service youth prog rams first as a way to teach nutrition to young people in the Expanded Food and Nut rition Education Program, says Snider. However, interest quickly spread beyond EFNEP as Extension agents and 4-H leaderssawclowningasa way to help young people and adults gain self-confidence, be creative, and overcome shy ness The fall workshop was planned to meet the demand for more information about such topics as creating a clown character, performing, clowning ethics, and incorpor ating clowning into existing 4-H groups as well as the background of clowning and how to work with 4-H'ers in clowning. As a follow-up to the workshop, regional meetings are planned for October 1 1 for county teams and Extension agents. The September workshop is supported in part by a grant from the Oregon 4-H Foundat ion, however the cost to each volunteer attending will be $10. is a problem, or where winter kill has been a problem, I recommend seeding either one of the club wheats; Faro, Jacmar, or Moro appear to be Umatilla Ready -Mix is Still in Business in Heppner Cement deliveries scheduled twice weekly to South Morrow County. Regularly on Wednesdays and Fridays J BirrliriP The answer was loud and clear throughout Oregon last year when the OSU Extension Service asked families to name their main concerns. People wanted help in learn ing how to conserve and manage the resources they have. They are concerned about the high cost of living, energy supplies, effective use of time, and how all of these affect their quality of life. These concerns are reflect ed in the emphasis of the Extension Service's Family Living-Home Economics Pro gram for the next two years. "Helping You Conserve Re sources" will be the major theme of the family living programs through 1982. While conserving and managing resources will be emphasized, not all programs will deal directly with conserving re sources as programs will continue to be offered which balance the program to meet a variety of educational needs and local interests. Family living programs for Morrow and Umatilla counties will kick off this fall with a training session offered on three topics simultaneously. Trainings will be offered for study group leader teachers and other interested persons on: "Getting the Most from Your Meat Money." "Discov er Your Local Heritage." and "Foods and Customs of Bang ladesh." Identical sessions . will be offered Sept. 16. First Christian Church. Pendleton, and on Sept. 17, Thompson Hall. Fairgrounds. Hermis- ton. Leader-teachers will re peat the lessons to groups during the three fall months. Leadership development training will be offered Oct. 1 in a special training for 4-H Leaders, study group mem bers. Sunday School teachers, members of any group, or for individuals. Instructor for the leadership workshop will be Marge Griffin. Vale. Ore., past slate president of Oregon Exjension Homemakers. and presently vice-president of the National Homemakers Coun cil. Fllowing closely during the fall months, special interest programs will be offered. "Potpourri." a special pre Christmas program designed to show home arts and money saving gift ideas will be offered Oct. 14 and 16 in Irrigon and Pendleton. "Pastas" will spotlight the food hit of the '80 s with ideas for low-cost meals using a wide variety of pasta, with demonstrations on such topics as making noodles in your food processor by hand, won tons. sauces, and other new and old foods based on pastas. November will be the month for "pasta." Both special interest programs will be offered in the evening at both Heppner and Pendleton to Gilliam a the best of the clubs, or Nugaines, or Luke, which are bearded soft whites,' says Kerr. for dispatch call collect 567-6173 allow working men and wom en to attend.

Sept. 18. 7:30 p.m. at the Lexington School house. Plans will be made for events and activ ities within the 4-H program for the coming year. The meeting is a full membership, combined north and south Morrow Council meeting. It is hoped all leaders, and others interested in learning about 4-H leadership will attend. Enrollment materials for the '80-'81 year will be available for leaders at the meeting. Help L's Out Due to current budget crunches in the state and in our county, we are running short of 4- H project mater ials and bulletins. If you have old materials that you are not using this year, could you return them to the office. Possibly, they will fit another club.. ..so, as you move up in phases, hand-down the mater ials you no longer need. Thanks. leaders Needed As the 4-H year starts, there are always more kids wanting to join a 4-H club than there are leaders for the clubs. John and Birdine are recruitinmg right now for leaders , so they may have opportunities for kids as they go to each of the schools to tell the 4-H story. Remember all those exhibits and activities at county fair? Did you see something that made you believe working with a group of young people would be a challenging and rewarding experience? Do you have a child that would benefit from a club experience where they learned about sewing, cook ing, painting, clowning, rais ing an animal, or some other project? If so. contact John Nordheim or Birdine Tullis at 676-9642 for more information on leadership... or member ship. Now is the time to do it. There is a 4-H opportunity for all interests!

The biggest prob lem is to get your fill of these tempting vegetables without overbuying. The solution may be to shop more often, buy the quantity you can Use and avoid waste. THOMPSON SEEDLESS GRAPES are plentiful. Sugar content has improved and the prices are trending down. Vine ripened Hermiston WAT ERMELONS are in the mar kets with frequent specials on this popular melon. Other melons available are CREN SHAW, CASABA, HONEY DEW and CANTALOUPE. Northwest NECTARINES are just starting and should be in good supply for the next few weeks. These nectarines have a particularly good color and are harvested when mature although not completely ripe. Usually, they need a few days of ripening at room temper ature. With all the good summer fruits, don't forget about VALENCIA ORANGES. Prices are moderate and quality is tops. These summer oranges peel more easily than usual, and sugar content is high. Don't worry if oranges are a green color because they are ripe on the inside. Buying meat cuts, featured in the ads is one way to help keep the food budget under control. POULTRY is fre quently specialed and contin ues to aid in keeping the meat bill down. Although you spend time in the first preparation, TURKEY can fill the bill for quick-to-fix meals. Roast the whole bird in the cool of the day. Then simply reheat ISie, turkey or serve cold sliced turkey, turkey sandwiches, salads or casseroles. You may also have some to tuck into the freezer. Although PORK prices have been trending up, specials still seem to be numerous. Family pack PORK CHOPS, which include end cuts, cost less than the center or loin chops. Although not as attractive in appearance, the flavor is the same as the more expensive chops. PORK STEAK, too, offers good value. Grilled kabobs can cut meat costs because you need less meat per person than you would probably normally serve and you can take advantage of some of the seasonal vegetables. Just thread chunks of meat on long skewers with wedges of vege tables such as onionj green pepper or summer squash. The meat could be BEEF cubes cut from chuck roast, marinated in oil, vinegar and seasonings for a few hours. Fresh RED SNAPPER, m m m BHti w mm m m . a m oast to oasft Heppner SOLE.
